Michelle Lee Hayes v. State

Opinion

In The

Court of Appeals

Sixth Appellate District of Texas at Texarkana

No. 06-19-00138-CR

MICHELLE LEE HAYES, Appellant V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 71st District Court Harrison County, Texas

Trial Court No. 17-0327X

Before Morriss, C.J., Burgess and Stevens, JJ.

ORDER

Our review of the clerk’s record and the reporter’s record in this case indicates that they

contain “sensitive data” as that phrase is defined in Rule 9.10 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. See TEX. R. APP. P. 9.10(a). Sensitive data includes “a driver’s license number, passport number, social security number, tax identification number or similar government-issued personal identification number.” TEX. R. APP. P. 9.10(a)(1). The clerk’s record and volume four of the reporter’s record include a social security number. Rule 9.10(b) states, “Unless a court orders otherwise, an electronic or paper filing with the court, including the contents of any appendices, must not contain sensitive data.” TEX. R. APP. P. 9.10(b).

Rule 9.10(g) provides, “A court may also order that a document be filed under seal in paper form or electronic form, without redaction.” TEX. R. APP. P. 9.10(g). Therefore, because the clerk’s record and volume four of the reporter’s record contain sensitive data, we order the clerk of this Court or her appointee, in accordance with Rule 9.10(g), to seal the electronically filed clerk’s record and volume four of the electronically filed reporter’s record in this case.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
